Musk offered ‘his technical experts’ to help investigate how a journalist was added to a group chat with national security officials

Elon Musk and the team at the Department of Government Efficiency will assist the White House and National Security Council in investigating how a journalist was added to a Signal group chat with national security officials, the White House Press Secretary said Wednesday.

After the shocking news that the editor-in-chief of The Atlantic was added to a group with cabinet members about a U.S. military operation in Yemen, lawmakers and the public have called for investigations into how the incident occurred.

White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt said those requests would be filled by the National Security Council, White House Counsel’s Office and Musk’s DOGE team.
